Postdoc Travel Awards

New Postdoc Travel Awards

Four Biophysical Society committees will be offering travel awards for postdoctoral fellows presenting abstracts at the 2012 Annual Meeting

in San Diego, California.

For the first time, the Minority Affairs Committee and the Education Committee are sponsoring postdoc travel awards to the Annual

Meeting. The Minority Affairs Committee will be off ering travel grants for minority postdocs, while the Education Committee’s postdoc travel

awards are open to any postdoctoral fellow presenting an abstract at the 2012 Annual Meeting.

These new postdoc awards are in addition to the travel awards already offered to postdocs by the Committee for Professional Opportunities for Women (CPOW) and the International Relations Committee.

Students, junior investigators, and senior scientists who are presenting abstracts at the 2012 Annual Meeting may also be eligible for specific travel awards. For more information on all travel awards, and to see for which travel awards you qualify, visit www.biophysics.org/2012meeting.

The Biophysical Society was founded in 1958 to encourage development and dissemination of knowledge in biophysics. It does so through its many programs, including its meetings, publications, and committee outreach activities.
